Centerpieces Round Two

Oh. So of course I decided to change my centerpieces with two weeks to go. Luckily I will still be able to use the colorful pots (for plants of course!) and the lanterns (in our future garden/patio area). Also the lanterns can be used outside at the reception (if the weather cooperates). So the idea is to keep things simpler and less primary/"seussical." Also everyone who has seen the lanterns/pots said they look like lighthouses. No thank you!

Card Box!!

So my co-worker Katie told me about the box for cards she had made for her wedding. Basically you take four photo frames and attach them to each other with L-brackets to form the sides of the box. You use foam board for the top and the bottom, slitting the top for cards to fit in. Katie put hers on a lazy susan so it would spin and people can see all of the photos. I am proud to say that I made it all by myself! I love using drills for crafty projects. Here is the finished product. After the wedding you can take it apart and use the wall frames seperately or you can keep the box intact and use it as decorative storage.
